The Nepal Mathematical Society (NMS) (Nepali: नेपाल गणित समाज), was founded (formally) in January 1979 (Nepali: बिक्रम सम्बत २०३५ माघ ५), by enthusiastic Nepalese mathematicians of that time, with the aim of enhancing the academic excellence in studying, teaching, research, and applications of mathematics.

Overview

The Nepal Mathematical Society is an association of professional mathematicians dedicated to the promotion of mathematical sciences in the country. The society annually publishes various publications and holds conferences and talk programs at the local and national level.^[1] The first president of the Nepal Mathematical Society is Prof. Dhup Ratna Bajracharya.^[2]

History

The establishment of an institute for enhancing mathematical research and education through sound activities was realized in 2019 B.S.^{[clarification needed]}^{[citation needed]}. The informal discussion happened between and among the most enthusiastic mathematicians and students of the master's degree program in a picnic program in 2019 B.S. Primarily, those influential figures of the institution were Prof. Ashutosh Ganguly, Prof. Krishna Murari Saxena, Prof. Govinda Dev Pant, Prof. Keshav Dev Bhattarai, Prof. Dhup Ratna Bajracharya, including the students Ram Man Shrestha, Shankar Raj Pant.^{[citation needed]} The Society attained its legal status in 2035/10/05 B.S.^{[citation needed]}

Objectives

Members and membership

Nepal Mathematical Society consists of more than 1000 life members around the globe as of 2021.^[3] The society offers two kinds of memberships in general: General membership and life membership. The general membership is to be renewed every year by paying a nominal membership fee, and the life membership can be obtained by paying the fee designated for life membership. To be eligible for the NMS membership, one has to hold a minimum of a master's degree in mathematical sciences either from Central Department of Mathematics TU or from some other universities recognized by Tribhuvan University.

Publications

The Nepal Mathematical Society publishes the Journal of Nepal Mathematical Society^[2] and the Nepal Mathematical Society Newsletter, the society's official newsletter.^[4]

Activities

The Nepal Mathematical Society organizes seminars, conferences, trainings every year to promote the studies, teaching, and research in mathematics.^{[citation needed]}

Association

The Nepal Mathematical Society has a reciprocity relationship with American Mathematical Society.^{[citation needed]}
